Happy November, friends! I’m a few days late but I finally got around to writing this post. As always, better late than never. 😉 EVERYTHING I KNOW ABOUT LOVE by Dolly Alderton – 3.5 stars Dolly Alderton is a British freelance writer, and her memoir Everything I Know About Love is a book about growing up and all kinds go love.

While I’ve retreated from social media, I’ve been reading a little bit more both because it’s a safe and comfortable space for me and because I’ve been on an audiobook kick!
